Introduction and
Objectives
Wheat (Triticum aestivum
L.) is considered the most important crop plant and the staple food for nearly
three-quarters of the world’s population. Therefore, investigating the genetic
diversity of this strategic crop can assist plant breeders in identifying the
actual genetic potential and capacity of traits related to breeding objectives,
including grain yield and yield components. Knowledge of the differences among
various wheat genotypes and the relationship of these differences with their
potential performance is highly essential for improving and advancing the
productivity of newly developed cultivars.
Materials and Methods:
In order to identify
desirable wheat genotypes, the genetic diversity of grain yield, yield
components, and genotype interactions in 21 promising wheat lines were
evaluated based on 14 important agronomic traits using a randomized complete
block design (RCBD) along with two important commercial cultivars of the region
(Tirgan and Kalateh) as controls, with three replications at the Agricultural
Research Station of the Ardabil Agricultural and Natural Resources Research and
Education Center (Moghan). Among the available methods for diversity
assessment, multivariate analysis is considered one of the most important and
widely used approaches.
Findings:
The results of the
analysis of variance at the 0.01 and 0.05 probability levels indicated that the
studied wheat lines showed significant differences for all traits except the
number of grains per spike. Duncan’s multiple range test also revealed that
lines G17 and G15 were selected as desirable lines for all measured traits,
whereas lines G3 and G19 exhibited the lowest rankings. Correlation analysis
demonstrated that grain yield had a positive and significant correlation with
all evaluated traits except tiller number, peduncle length, and number of
grains per spike. Based on principal component analysis, the first five
principal components explained more than 75% of the total variance in the data.
According to the grouping diagram based on the first and second principal
components, the lines were classified into four groups. Furthermore, graphical
analysis of line ranking indicated that promising wheat lines G15 and G17
exhibited superior performance compared to the other studied lines for the
evaluated traits, while line G4 was identified as the most stable genotype in
terms of trait stability. The polygon diagram also identified lines G15, G17,
G18, G23, G6, G10, and G12 as desirable genotypes. Based on the ideal genotype
ranking diagram, G15 and G17 were recognized as the top-ranked lines.
Conclusion:
The high-yielding lines
and other agronomically desirable genotypes identified in this study can be
utilized in developing superior populations adapted to the warm and humid
climatic conditions of northern regions of the country.

Figures and Tables
All figures and tables
should be placed within the main text of the article and positioned as close as
possible to their first citation in the text, centered on the page. Figures
must be of sufficient clarity and high quality. Letters, symbols, and captions
should be selected in sizes that are clear, legible, and distinguishable. If a
figure is presented as a graph, the exact title of each axis and the
corresponding units must be clearly indicated.
Each figure and table
must have an independent consecutive number and must be referred to within the
text. In addition, every figure and table should have a separate title written
in bold font (B Nazanin 10 pt), placed below the figure and above the table.
If a figure or table is
not the result of the current study and has been adapted from another
reference, the reference number must be mentioned at the end of the title
inside brackets. As an example, reference can be made to Table 1 and Figure 1.
